My life is about family and creativity. I love to do many different things and I change my focus often. But family and creativity are always part of each day in starrgirl's world.

things from supper

Thanks to Laura of laurelines for today's inspiration. Her still lifes are always so vibrant that I was driven to my own fridge for a couple of tasty subjects. She also caused me to try out these Cretacolor pencils in the WC Moleskine. I'm still touching up with regular watercolor and a bit of colored pencil, but less each time.

Hee hee, what fun! Looks like we even have similar dishes for cantaloupe-placing! I'm finding that the Caran d'Ache neocolor II crayons are giving me the effects I want with summer light and colors, but my big set of Cretacolors will always be a favorite!The subtlety of coloration in the asparagus is wonderful!

Now THOSE are what asparagus are supposed to look like!!!! I will be studying these to improve my own -- they're AWESOME!!! Phenomenal coloring, shape, detaling -- and ditto for the melon!! OH HOW I LOVE YOUR WORK!!!
